Turks and Caicos Islands: 5 Day Forecast
Ahoy from Mudjin Harbour on Middle Caicos, Boaby Rock Point on Grand Turk, and Grace Bay on Providenciales. Today at Mudjin Harbour the sun rises at 06:40 AM and sets at 06:34 PM, with the moon 43% lit. With tonight's cloud cover dropping near 5% in many spots, it may be a fine night to stargaze, and low in the western sky after sunset ye may catch bright Venus if the horizon stays clear.
Saturday brings a fair sailing day overall, matey, but with some changes through the hours. At Mudjin Harbour, the morning starts more clouded, building from 22% overnight up to full cloud cover near 8:00 AM, then clearing sharply to near 5% by late morning and afternoon; temperatures run about 79 to 86 F, and with humidity near 72% to 75% it will feel like 83 to 96 F. Winds stay easterly around 11 to 15 Miles Per Hour, and seas hold near 4 feet, briefly easing to 3 feet late afternoon. Grace Bay runs a touch calmer with 3 foot seas all day, east winds near 12 to 17 Miles Per Hour, temperatures about 82 to 84 F, and mostly dry conditions with only passing sunshowers too light to spoil beach time or dinner outdoors. Boaby Rock Point is the breezier and wetter outlier early, with east winds near 14 to 16 Miles Per Hour, 4 foot seas, and a few predawn showers before brighter skies return by late afternoon. For boaters and divers, the steadiest window looks late morning through late afternoon in Grace Bay, while dinner time stays warm and mostly clear countrywide, though Grand Turk keeps the choppiest water.
Sunday stays friendly too, though showers become more noticeable in places. Mudjin Harbour keeps easterly winds near 11 to 14 Miles Per Hour with 3 to 4 foot seas, starting mostly clear overnight before a stretch of more frequent light showers develops from morning into late afternoon; temperatures sit near 80 to 84 F, and with humidity around 68% to 75% it will feel like 82 to 90 F. Grace Bay follows a similar pattern with 3 foot seas, east winds around 14 to 15 Miles Per Hour, and the best weather for the ocean early and again near sunset, while midday brings the greatest chance of passing showers even though skies stay rather bright. Boaby Rock Point remains the rougher stop with 4 foot seas all day and east to southeast winds around 14 to 15 Miles Per Hour, plus steadier daytime showers than the rest of the country from morning into afternoon. Dinner time looks decent in all three spots with warm air near 82 F, but Grand Turk again is the outlier for the choppiest water and most unsettled daytime weather.
